Stirlingshire of Coralville

There's a fair amount of turnover in dining staff because of low wages and tips are forbidden. The facility is close to University Hospital. There are many activities offered for residents.

When Dad first moved in, it was amazing. Then after 6 months it was sold to a corporation and you know how that goes. Cutting corners due to budget. Absolutely beautiful facilities, just the food and admin are less than desirable. Would still recommend this facility to others looking.

Place is great as long as you are aging gracefully. Once a serious illness happens, the care diminished greatly. For paying $[removed]k+ a month, we expected much more in care than was received the last month she was there before hospitalization.

The facility is beautiful and very clean and Mom receives excellent care from the friendly staff. Mom is in a one bedroom and it's the perfect size for her, spacious but not so large that she has trouble getting from room to room. The amenities in the apartment are excellent including a full sized kitchen.

Great experience, highly recommend, everyone there (staff) has been exceptional. We picked this community because of the location, and the cost was right in the ballpark with others.

5 for all as experience was limited. My cousin believes it was her best option and is settling in well! Food is very good but a bit salty. Staff is kind helpful and responsive. Is fairly close to friends in the area.

I would rate Stirlingshire of Coralville a 5 on all of the categories but I don't think I can actually give a rating for the food because I am not the one eating it but the menus always look good and Mom usually says that the food is good. The level and quality of care is exceptional and all of the staff are very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend Stirlingshire to others.

They have been nothing but fantastic to my parents. We could not be happier. The staff is wonderful. [name removed] was so responsive to any issue that we had. [name removed] was great to work with for onboarding. [name removed] and [name removed] in the dining area are just wonderful. All of the medical staff have been so wonderful with my parents. It's great there!! We would absolutely recommend Stirlingshire of Coralville to other families based on the experience we have had so far! I have already recommended to 2 people and one has moved in already and one is moving in [name removed]!!

I recently visited a friend at Stirlingshire. It is beautiful community with a lot of natural light. The apartments are spacious with full kitchens in them. Many different activities to choose from. The staff are friendly and very helpful with anything you may need. I joined my friend for a meal which was delicious! If I were to choose a community in the Coralville/Iowa City area, I would choose this one.

It's a great place. Mom really likes the activities and outings they provide. The apartments are really nice with lots of light. It's a fabulous facility. I've looked at many facilities and this is the best overall that I've found for my mom. She likes it a lot.

The community was very welcoming and clean. They want this to be the "final" home, I.E. they don't kick the resident out if money runs out or if the resident needs to go on hospice. They provide great outings/activities and public events for the residents.

Staff was friendly, food looked great and residents were having fun playing bean bag toss! Great community! I liked how staff all welcomed us and introduced themselves and engaged with people living there.

Stirlingshire of Coralville is a beautiful community that is nestled away in a tree-lined quiet part of Coralville, yet close to all of the important amenities. Staff here are amazing, so personal and you can tell they love where they work, and what they do. Everyone is greeted by name, and they are very genuine with the care of the residents. 3 chef prepared meals a day, and the food is absolutely delicious and nutritious! If you have not checked out Stirlingshire, be sure that you do. Great activities, care and building!

The staff is very caring and compassionate. We have an excellent Chef and Friday's are movie day. The activities are varied and interesting even if I cannot attend all the time. I like that the building is modern and natural light.

I went to Stirlingshire this past week and was amazed by how much attention the staff provide to the residents. Everyone who works there seems to genuinely enjoy working at an assisted living facility. The residents all looked very happy and like they were enjoying their time there. We stopped in the dining room and the food looked absolutely delicious. They even have a full hair salon/gymnasium that is available for the residents to use. We were told that they have a Movie Theater and all watch a movie every Friday together. I would recommend anyone who is looking for a place with high care and strong morals to check out Stirlingshire.

My husband was at Stirlingshire of Coralville for three weeks, and they had one person watching five people. They had to take care of the meals, not cooking them, but serving them. They had to do the laundry and upkeep of the rooms. They had a lot of duties to do while watching people with Alzheimer's. One person is not enough. My husband was there for one week when he fell and hit his head. We took him to the emergency room and everything was okay. The next week he fell and broke his nose in two places. They didn't see him until the blood was starting coagulate on the floor. They finally got in, picked him up, and took him to the emergency room again. They did CAT scans to make sure everything was okay, aside from his nose. The next week, he fell and broke 3 ribs. He, unfortunately, passed away the Tuesday after that happened. I'm not really happy with them. The day he passed away, there was no nurse to be found to check on him or look after him. It was on mine and my sons part. My son went to lunch with him, came back and put him in his chair where he fell asleep. I got there at 2:30pm and he was still sleep. One of the girls came in around 3-3:30pm trying to give him his medications. He wasn't awake, but she put it in his mouth anyway. At about 4:30pm or so, I called the VA because that's who we doctor with and they said to call 911 if he was still asleep. We took him to the emergency room and he passed away two days later. I'm just not happy with Stirlingshire. Every time I said he needed more people to know where he is and what he's doing, they said they don't do that. There were at least three nurses there, but very seldom did they come and check vitals. They depended on the CNA's to pass out medications and take care of the people. I know they are a new company, but there is no excuse for that. There were, however, two ladies there who really seemed to care.

Has been a good place for our loved one. Many options has allowed our loved one to settle in nicely and make it like home. Food options are improving over time, more options more selections. Needs more fresh vegetable and fruits options. Activities are improving as well and seem to have decent program. Nice facility and kept up and clean. Friendly staff all around. Residents are also quite friendly.
